There is a feeling, and I share it.

that we shouldnt spend money building country club facilities." he said. There are some country club" federal prisons, but "there are no country clubs in Utah," he said. The Attorney General said convicted killer Gary Mark Gilmore "didnt know capital punishment was a possibility" when he committed two murders in Utah County. Gilmore came from Oregon where there wasn't a capital punishment statute, he said, and Utahs law was unbeknown" to him. Not Partisan Problem The attorney general said the prison problem is not a "partisan problem." "It costs a lot less to correct people outside of prison than inside prison," he said.

li! Law Constitutional Spooking at a luncheon, Hansen said he believes Utahs capital punishment law is constitutional and sound Crime is a great concern, regardless of political views." Hansen said Indore outlining what he said were some historical causes of the "vast crime wave we are facing." Three substantial, contributing causes" in the crime increase in the United States have now been reversed, Hansen said. He said the causes were. The permissive attitude of the United States Supreme Court under Chief Justice Earl Warren Citing a study which indicated inlent crime on the streets decreases as more criminals are sent to prison, Hansen said he believes such studies are true, but he realizes sending more people to prison raises other serious questions. Capital Punishment Housing criminals state prisons is "terribly, terribly expensive, Hansen said, but added "were the beneficiaries of the money appropriated to upgrade prison facilities. Prisons not being used as frequently us thej should be.

Capital punishment not being used to deter crime. "It's not a popular cause," he said of efforts to By Paul INichols upgrade the state prison.

Hansen said in support of efforts to have the state legislature appropriate additional funds to expand the state prison. In reference to alternatives to prisons, Hanson noted the barracks plan," proposed by the Carbon County attorney a haltway house correction institution where less serious offenders are sent to an informal, less stringent facility instead of prison and are allowed to go home on weekends. "As crowded conditions continue, judges are not going to put people who deserve to be in prison in that facility, he said, adding a time wilt come when federal judges will consider placing anybody in an overcrowded prison as cruel and unusual punishment, outlawed by the Eighth Amendment.
